Abstract

This article addresses the ways in which minimum-wage regulations impact on the data and financial statements reported by accounting systems. Taking a user perspective, the effect of a change in minimum wage will be more readily apparent within managerial accounting systems than financial accounting systems under current standards promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board.
